Re: [PHP] Clear POST variables
I am not using a session, and redirecting I think would be a bad way
of doing this because of the potential hit that the server would take
for every insert. I have done a few pages like this, and never ran
into this situation. Now I need to go back and fix this. Basically
all I have is this.
add.php
Name:
?>
Then in insert.php I have this:
if ($_POST['name'] !== "")
{
$name = $_POST['name'];
$query = "insert into Locations
(name)
values
('$name)";
mysql_query($query, $link) or die
(mysql_error());
}
This is how I learned in some book somewhere. Is everyone saying that
I need to either use sessions, or redirect so that when someone
refreshes insert.php, it doesn't submit the information again? To me
it seems that there has to be a more efficient way. I don't
understand the token thing that some are suggesting.

You can't clear out the POST variables -- they are SENT by the
browser
to you.
The simplest solution is to set up a one-time-use token and embed
that
in your FORM data:
I usually use a session based token but i guess it the result is
the same.

Re: [PHP] Clear POST variables
What I have is a page that you enter the information in, and when you
click on submit, it goes to another page that has the code to enter
it into the database and says "Thank You, you submitted
information. Are you saying that I should redirect to another page
after that?

[PHP] Browser on server doesn't refresh

When I run the script locally, everything works. When I put the script on my OS X Server and run the script, and click on the link to go back, the information is not updated. I have to refresh the page. I have tried this in different browsers, and on different systems and the same results happen.

Re: [PHP] Date Calculation
Ok, so here is what I have. Please check to see if there is a better
way. There are a lot of database calls to me.
$ethernet_address = "00:01:93:8e:69:50";
$db_connect = mysql_connect( $host, $login, $password ) or die
(mysql_error());
$db_select = mysql_select_db($database_name) or die (mysql_error());
$query = "SELECT * FROM hardware_assets WHERE ethernet_address =
'$ethernet_address'";
$result = mysql_query($query, $db_connect) or die (mysql_error());
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ))
{
$timestamp = $row["script_ran"];
$timequery = "SELECT SEC_TO_TIME(UNIX_TIMESTAMP() -
UNIX_TIMESTAMP('$timestamp')) as diff";
$timeresult = mysql_query($timequery, $db_connect) or die
(mysql_error());
$time = mysql_result($timeresult, 0, 0);
$secondquery = "SELECT TIME_TO_SEC('$time')";
$secondresult = mysql_query($secondquery, $db_connect) or die
(mysql_error());
$seconds = mysql_result($secondresult, 0, 0);
echo $seconds;
}
?>
This returns the seconds since the timestamp was set for the row where
the ethernet address of the computer is equal to $ethernet_address. I
can then do the math so that I can display the hours or minutes. I can
even have it so that when the time is too long, it displays in red, or
bold, or whatever I want.

[PHP] Authentification Help
I have created a script that authenticates to an Active Directory
server. This script works when I try to login, but the problem is that
I have to bind to be able to get "my" dn to be able to authenticate,
but I need authenticate first to be able to get "my" dn. Chicken before
the egg problem.
In the ldap_bind(), I have entered "my" dn to be able to authenticate
for now, but with this I am the only person that would be able to
login.
I could bind to the server twice, once to get an individuals "dn" , set
the variable, and then once I have the "user's" dn I could bind again
as that user, but this seems like it would cause a lot of overhead.
Does anyone have a better way to do this than bind twice?
$dn = "OU=Anoka-Hennepin,DC=ah,DC=isd11";
$filter = "(samaccountname=" . $username . "*)";
$ad = ldap_connect("ldap://172.22.1.20";)

[PHP] Active Directory Authentification
I have been working on this all day, and am not getting this to work. I
am creating an application where a user would authenticate against
Active Directory. Yesterday I was able to get PHP to connect to the AD
server and display entries using this script.
// PHP script to connect to the Active Directory Server a return a
result
// used for testing Active Directory connections.
$dn = "OU=Staff,OU=LCDC,OU=Anoka-Hennepin,DC=ah,DC=isd11";
$attributes = array("displayName", "department");
$filter = "(cn=*)";
$ad = ldap_connect("ldap://myadserver";)
or die("Couldn't connect to AD!");
ldap_set_option($ad, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);
$bd = ldap_bind($ad, "CN=Tuller\,
Mike,OU=Staff,OU=LCDC,OU=Anoka-Hennepin,DC=ah,DC=isd11","password")
or die("Couldn't bind to AD!");
$result = ldap_search($ad, $dn, $filter, $attributes);
$entries = ldap_get_entries($ad, $result);
for ($i=0; $i<$entries["count"]; $i++)
{
echo $entries[$i]["displayname"]
[0].", ".$entries[$i]["department"][0]."";
}
ldap_unbind($ad);
?>
Everything lists correctly. I looked on the web, and in the mailing
lists, and between the two have come up with this script to
authenticate. I have a web page with forms to enter the username and
password.
$dn = 'OU=Staff,OU=LCDC,OU=Anoka-Hennepin,DC=ah,DC=isd11';
function ldap_authenticate()
{
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
if ($username != "" && $password != "")
{
if (! ($ad = ldap_connect("172.22.1.20")))
{
die("Could not connect to LDAP server!");
}
ldap_set_option($ad, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);
if (! ldap_bind( $ad, "CN=Tuller\,
Mike,OU=Staff,OU=LCDC,OU=Anoka-Hennepin,DC=ah,DC=isd11", $password))
{
die("Unable to bind to server!");
}
if (! ($r = ldap_search( $ad, $dn, 'cn=' . $username)))
{
die("Nothing Found!");
}
if ($r)
{
$result = ldap_get_entries( $ad, $r);
if ($result[0])
{
if (ldap_bind( $ds, $result[0][$dn], $password) )
{
return $result[0];
}
}
}
}
}
if (($result = ldap_authenticate()) == NULL) {
echo('Authorization Failed');
exit(0);
}
echo('Authorization success');
print_r($result);
?>
When I run everything though, I get this error:
Warning: ldap_search(): Search: No such object in
/Library/Apache2/htdocs/ldap/auth.php on line 23
Nothing Found!
I have looked at this for too long, and now am to the point where I am
out of ideas. Could someone look at this and see if they can figure out
what I am doing wrong here?

[PHP] Includes confusion
I can't figure this out. I have a line where I include a file
include "/Library/WebServer/includes/database_connection.inc";
I want to have this declared in one location, so that I don't have to
change multiple lines if I ever move the application, everything works
fine except inside functions. So if I have the following:
include "/Library/WebServer/includes/database_connection.inc";
function list_search_results()
{
// my code that lists search results
}
The functions returns an error, but if I do this:
function list_search_results()
{
include "/Library/WebServer/includes/database_connection.inc";
// my code that lists search results
}
Everything works fine. Shouldn't the function be able to use the
include file when it is declared outside the function?

[PHP] Select all that contains in MySql
I have built a search function that searches a table for all items that match what you enter into the search field. I would like it to return all items that contain a certain string rather that matches. For example, I want to have it so that if I enter M in the search field, it will return all items that start with M. Here is what I have so far. $query = "SELECT * FROM software_assets WHERE $searchType LIKE '$search' "; Thanks, Mike -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Register_globals question
Well, I know it has something to do with register_globals, because it
only starts working when I turn register_globals on. If it is off, the

anything that is global, but as I said before, I am not very familiar

[PHP] Setting session variables from value in database
I have a login page and have sessions working so that if a user is in
the database, they can login. I want to also add a "user_type" to the
session so that I can have regular staff see certain things, and
admin's see other things, but I can't seem to pull the information out
of the database.
Here is part of what I have.
$query = "select * from users where username='$username' and
password='$password' ";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$num = mysql_num_rows($result);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$_SESSION['user_type'] = $row['user_type'];
$user_type = $_SESSION['user_type'];
if ($num > 0 )
{
$_SESSION['valid_user'] = $username;
$valid_user = $_SESSION['valid_user'];
}
Now if I tell it to print $valid_user, it shows the user logged in, but
if I try to print $user_type I don't get anything in return. Any ideas
as to what I am doing wrong? I have tried a separate query for the
mysql_fetch_array, and that didn't seem to work either.

[PHP] Sessions
In an earlier post I wanted to carry an id number that I had in $HTTP_GET_VARS into another script. I was told that one way would be to store the number in the session. My question is how can I store a variable inside a session? In my books and in the documentation I see things about the global $_SESSION array, and see examples using $_SESSION['visits'], but where can I store the value of something like the id number of a record in a database. What I have is a page that lists records in a database. In this case it happens to be an asset database. I have a hypertext link for the asset_id. I click on the link and it adds the id number to the url like this: $row[asset_id] I then use $HTTP_GET_VARS to get the record's information and fill in the fields in editsoftwareasset.php so that I can edit the information. $query = "select * from assets where asset_id = '$HTTP_GET_VARS[id]'"; I am stuck when I go to save the information because I can't get the $HTTP_GET_VARS to to carry onto the script for processing the changed information. One way I could do it is with a hidden field, but I would like to do it within sessions. How can I store the asset_id in the session?

[PHP] Question
I am working from an example in a book that has the following and is
not explained very well:
# read results of query, then clean up
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
print ("\n");
for ($i = 0; $i < mysql_num_fields ($result); $i++)
{
# escape any special characters and print
printf ("%s\n", htmlspecialchars ($row[$i]));
}
print ("\n");
}
I understand most of what is going on here except for this line:
printf ("%s\n", htmlspecialchars ($row[$i]));
Can someone explain to me what the %s is?

Re: [PHP] HTTP_GET_VARS[]
I am using PHP 4.3.0. it looks a little confusing because I am not
using the $_POST when calling variables, but that is because before
that script I have this.
$title = $_POST['title'];
$version = $_POST['version'];
$developer = $_POST['developer'];
$serial_number = $_POST['serial_number'];
$platform = $_POST['platform'];
For me it makes things easier to read.
I changed what you said, and it still doesn't update anything. I even
added echo $HTTP_POST_VARS['id']; to check to see if there was any
value, but the echo statement doesn't return anything.
Can I carry the HTTP_POST_VARS to another page, or do I need to use
hidden fields or something?

Change the var to '{$HTTP_POST_VARS['id']}' (with the curly braces
since
the array reference is inside a double quoted string. If your version
of php is 4.1.2 or higher, you really ought to use '{$_POST['id']}'
since it's a magic global and easier to use since you won't have to
declare it global inside functions.

I have created a page for editing a row in a MySql database where first I have a page listing the items in the table, and have the id as a hypertext link that then on then opens the editing page with the correct information using HTTP_GET_VARS[id] where the URL is http://127.0.0.1/asset/editsoftwareasset.php?id=3.

I tested the sql statement by by having the asset_id = '3', and it updated the record, but the HTTP_GET_VARS didn't. How can I have the editsoftwareasset.php POST to the updatesoftwareasset.php and carry the HTTP_GET_VARS variable so that I can update the correct record? I hope all of this makes sense.

I am working with sessions, and following an example in a book and am

Warning : Unknown(): Your script possibly relies on a session
side-effect which existed until PHP 4.2.3. Please be advised that the
session extension does not consider global variables as a source of

functionality and this warning by setting session.bug_compat_42 or
session.bug_compat_warn to off, respectively. in Unknown on line 0
What does this mean, and what am I doing wrong?
Well, you're not necessarily doing anything wrong -- as the warning
says, your script *possibly* relies on...
What's happened is that in version 4.3.0, a bug in session variable
handling was fixed -- but the fix changes the way session variables
behave in certain situations, and PHP has detected that you *may* have
coded in a way that is sensitive to those changes. If you understand
the issues (and I'm not 100% sure I do!) and are *sure* you're not
relying on them, then you can set the session.bug_compat_* values in
php.ini as specified.
The best way of avoiding this error, however, is to drop the use of
session_register() and friends, and switch to using the $_SESSION[]
array -- so the fragment of code I've left in above would become:
if ($num > 0 )
{
$_SESSION['valid_user'] = $_POST['username'];
}
// PHP script to create the html for the login page
if (isset($_SESSION["valid_user"]))
Cheers!

[PHP] Sessions error
I am working with sessions, and following an example in a book and am
getting an error that I am not sure of. I have an html doc that has the
fields for username and password and the information entered goes to
this script.
session_start();
// set variables needed
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$connection = mysql_connect( 'localhost', 'username', 'password' ) or
die (mysql_error());
$db = mysql_select_db( "database", $connection) or die (mysql_error());
$query = "select * from users where username='$username' and
password=('$password')";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$num = mysql_num_rows($result);
if ($num > 0 )
{
$valid_user = $_POST[username];
session_register("valid_user");
}
// PHP script to create the html for the login page
if (session_is_registered("valid_user"))
{
echo "You are logged in as: $valid_user ";
echo "Log out";
}
else
{
if (isset($username))
{
// if they have tried and failed to login
echo "Could not login with the username $username.";
}
else
{
// They have not tried to login yet or have logged out
echo "You are not logged in. Please click on the link below to go
back to the login form.";
}
}
?>
Back to Login Form
Everything works except for when I login correctly, it shows that I am
logged in, but at the bottom I get this message.

Re: [PHP] Advice needed
After much thought, I think I have figured out what I am going to do. I am
going to create on the first page, a place to add the hardware type, and
that will add a row to the database, and create the key I need. It will then
go to another page where I can enter the information, and I will have the
key to be able to do the volume stuff that I want. So I would have a
dropdown menu to select the type of hardware and and add hardware button
only.
This would also allow me to make this front end more customizable. For
instance if I have a drop down that contains workstation, server, printer,
etc. I could write the code so that when workstation is selected, and I hit
add, it brings up the page to enter workstation information. If I select
printer, then I can enter printer information. If later I decide to add
other items, even if they aren't computer related, I could with ease.
If anyone see a problem with this idea, let me know. I think this would
work, but I haven't started coding yet.

[PHP] Advice needed
I am trying to develop a front end to a database that will be used for entering information about the computer systems I take care of. It would be easy to do if it weren't for one problem. I want to list information about the drives that are in each system. There could be one, two, or 10 drives, so I want to have it generate a new table row for each drive. That I can do. The issue I run into is how best to create the interface. Right now I have a page where everything is entered on one page. I have two tables in the database. One for the basic hardware information, and one for the volume information. The volume table has a field for the hardwareID so that I can tie the volumes to the hardware, and with a separte table, I can have as many drives as I want. The problem with this is that when I click on a hyperlink to open a window for adding a volume, I need a hardwareID to be able to tie the volume information to the hardware. The hardwareID is created in MySql when the information entered for the hardware is submitted, which hasn't been done yet. I could break this up into multiple pages, where I enter the basic information, and then I will have an ID created to use so that I can add the volumes, but this could get messy. Is there a better way of doing this? This is confusing to follow, I know. Here is a link to the page I am talking about so that you can get an idea of what I am talking about. http://bowser.homedns.org/assets/addasset.html About 1/3 the way down, you will see an Add Volume link that will take you to the addvolume page.

integer. Would this cause the telephoneNumber info to not show up when I
view it through a web browser?

Re: [PHP] Webmin
Webmin uses templates, so you could create anything you want. If you go into Webmin configuration under the Webmin tab, you will see templates. When you go in there you will see a menu for current theme. It should have Calderas theme. That at least means they are open to template creation.

[PHP] ldap_search()
Sorry about this, but I don't know much about LDAP, and the book I have doesn't tell me much. I was shown the following script to grab information from an LDAP server and display the results in a phonebook type format. The problem I am running into I think is that I work for a school district, and I don't have a .com address. I have anoka.k12.mn.us. I tried to put in $basedn = "dc=anoka, dc=k12, dc=mn, dc=us"; but I still receive an error on ldap_search. Am I doing this correctly?

[PHP] LDAP Listing
I want to create a list of everyone on the LDAP server, and none of the examples I have in my books seems to work. What functions should I use to connect to the server, and list users in the LDAP to create a phone book type list to print out? Could someone also give me some sort of example that I can look at?

Re: [PHP] PDF Problems
After spending a lot of time on this I think I almost have it figured out. I don't think it is a problem with the install. A found on php.net where when using pdflib 3.03, pdf_new() doesn't work. The fix is at the bottom of http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdf.php It says to change pdf_new() to the following: > Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 17:31:45 -0500 > To: Sam Goin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP] PDF Problems > > What OS and glibc version?

[PHP] PDF Functions
Ok. I have done everything I have been told to do, found on the web, and I can think of other than bringing in a voodoo priest to get this going. I'll try to explain what I have done so far. I have a system with RedHat 7.0 installed, and am trying to get PDFlib to work with PHP 4.04. The configure script I am using is as follows: ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local --with-config-file-path=/www/conf --with-apache=../httpd --enable-track-vars--with-system-regex=yes --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png-dir=/usr --with-zlib-dir=/usr --with-pdflib=/usr/local--with-tiff-dir=/usr Configure runs fine, make runs without errors, make install too. When I go to bring up the test page of the clock, I get this. Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pdf_new() in /www/servers/pdfclock.php on line 7 I have taken the advice of others to not use the rpm of apache and have compiled it myself. I also spent the time removing RedHat 7 and putting 6.2 back on. Only to find that if anything needs updating, that dependency problems forced me to go back to 7.0 anyway. I have updated the system library and specified at http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/perugini20001026.php3?page=2 It still doesn't work! I finally decided to try using ClibPDF. That runs into the same problem at the same spot. Fatal error: Call to undefined function: cpdf_open() in /www/servers/pdftest.php on line 2 So this tells me that there is probably not anything wrong with PDFlib or ClibPDF, that it is something that I am not doing or something else. PHP is working fine though, and if I compile with Mysql or anything else, they work fine. If anyone has anymore advice on how to get this PDFlib working, please let me know. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP] PDF Functions
The reason why I needed the RPM is because no matter what I tried, I
couldn't get PHP to compile for the Apache rpm on Redhat 7. If at all
possible, I like to use the rpms so that they can be easily updated.
I have done everything everyone has suggested, and I still get an error. I
have even compiled PHP and still I can't use PDFlib. What next?
Here is the updated config script that I used.
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-config-file-path=/etc
--disable-debug --enable-pic --enable-shared
--enable-inline-optimization --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs
--with-exec-dir=/usr/bin --with-regex=system --with-gettext --with-gd

[PHP] PDF Functions
I finally got everything to install on RedHat 7, but I can't do anything
with pdflib like I had expected.
I get back Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pdf_new() in
/var/www/html/pdfclock.php on line 7. Line 7 is $pdf = PDF_new();
This is rather frustrating that every time I try to install PHP on a machine
it takes me a week to get it going.
Here is what I have for the config from the srpm after modification as
instructed earlier.
./configure \
--prefix=%{_prefix} \
--with-config-file-path=%{_sysconfdir} \
--disable-debug \
--enable-pic \
--enable-shared \
--enable-inline-optimization \
$* \
--with-exec-dir=%{_bindir} \
--with-regex=system \
--with-gettext \
--with-gd \
--with-jpeg-dir=%{_prefix} \
--with-png \
--with-zlib \
--with-gdbm \
--enable-debugger \
--enable-magic-quotes \
--enable-safe-mode \
--enable-sockets \
--enable-sysvsem \
--enable-sysvshm \
--enable-track-vars \
--enable-yp \
--enable-ftp \
--enable-wddx \
--with-mysql \
--with-xml \
--with-pdflib=/usr/lib/lipdf.so.0 \
--with-tiff
Can someone look at this and tell me what else I need to put in to get this
to work?
Mike

[PHP] PHP 4 on RedHat 7
I'm at a loss for this one. I can't seem to get PHP 4 on RedHat 7. I can get the rpm to install and work, but if I try to configure myself, it never works. Everything says to configure with apxs, but there is no apxs. What is strange though is if I look at how the rpm configures PHP, it configures it with apxs and it works! I want to configure PHP with PDF support, so I can't just use the rpms. If anyone has any suggestions, let me know. That is other that trying to configure apache manually. I've been down that road before, and don't want to do it again.

Re: [PHP] <> Flash + PHP <>
www.thickbook.com is a good start. Last I looked it covered Flash 4, and Flash 5 is quite a bit different. Basically you have PHP print the variables in HTML and Have Flash parse that. Flash can't directly parse PHP variables. It's not difficult once you figure it out.
